Tibook
G4 400mhz
512 mb RAM
Upgraded 48 gb HD (IBM Travelstar @ 5400 rpm...)
DVD Drive
Marware Case
Still gets over 3 hours of battery life!
All original accessories, box, and most of the documents.
Excellent condition. No scratches. No dead pixels that I can see. Paint chipping a little on the hinges, but nowhere else. Served me well, and still is a powerhouse with Web and Design apps. Not good for gaming, though.

I just bought a 12" Powerbook on the forums here (Thanks Roy!), so I need to sell my very first mac. Makes me sad, but life goes on. What do you think I can get for this? I'm thinking of selling locally, but if there is anybody interested out there, make me an offer.

Thanks for any help!

That's probably a tad high, that's the high-end of what 500mhz TiBooks are going for.

Ummm, yeah, that's a little high. I'd say it's worth about $900, maybe $1K.

Good luck.

Got $1200 for it. Threw in a better case and an apple pro mouse, as well as MS Office X.

Macs are hard to come by here in Guam, so that's why it sold for higher than "market" value.

Well, with Office X, a case, and a pro mouse, I'd say you'd get $1200. If you'd mentioned those extras and I would have told you you'd get $1200 for it.
